Article I.

SHAREHOLDERS.

1.    Place of Meeting. All meetings of the shareholders shall be held at the office of the Corporation in the City and County of San Francisco, State of California, or at such other place, within or without the State of California, as may be designated by the Board of Directors.

2.    Annual Meetings. The annual meeting of shareholders shall be held each year on a date and at a time designated by the Board of Directors.

Written notice of the annual meeting shall be given not less than ten (or, if sent by third-class mail, thirty) nor more than sixty days prior to the date of the meeting to each shareholder entitled to vote thereat. The notice shall state the place, day, and hour of such meeting, and those matters which the Board, at the time of mailing, intends to present for action by the shareholders.

Notice of any meeting of the shareholders shall be given by mail or telegraphic or other written communication, postage prepaid, to each holder of record of the stock entitled to vote thereat, at his address, as it appears on the books of the Corporation.

At an annual meeting of shareholders, only such business shall be conducted as shall have been properly brought before the annual meeting. To be properly brought before an annual meeting, business must be (i) specified in the notice of the annual meeting (or any supplement thereto) given by or at the direction of the Board, or (ii) otherwise properly brought before the annual meeting by a shareholder. For business to be properly brought before an annual meeting by a shareholder, including the nomination of any person (other than a person nominated by or at the direction of the Board) for election to the Board, the shareholder must have given timely and proper written notice to the Corporate Secretary of the Corporation. To be timely, the shareholder’s written notice must be received at the principal executive office of the Corporation not less than forty-five days before the date corresponding to the mailing date of the notice and proxy materials for the prior year’s annual meeting of shareholders; provided, however, that if the annual meeting to which the shareholder’s written notice relates is to be held on a date that differs by more than thirty days from the date of the last annual meeting of shareholders, the shareholder’s written notice to be timely must be so received not later than the close of business on the tenth day

following the date on which public disclosure of the date of the annual meeting is made or given to shareholders. Any shareholder’s written notice that is delivered after the close of business (5:00 p.m. local time) will be considered received on the following business day. To be proper, the shareholder’s written notice must set forth as to each matter the shareholder proposes to bring before the annual meeting (a) a brief description of the business desired to be brought before the annual meeting, (b) the name and address of the shareholder as they appear on the Corporation’s books, (c) the class and number of shares of the Corporation that are beneficially owned by the shareholder, and (d) any material interest of the shareholder in such business. In addition, if the shareholder’s written notice relates to the nomination at the annual meeting of any person for election to the Board, such notice to be proper must also set forth (a) the name, age, business address, and residence address of each person to be so nominated, (b) the principal occupation or employment of each such person, (c) the number of shares of capital stock of the Corporation beneficially owned by each such person, and (d) such other information concerning each such person as would be required under the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission in a proxy statement soliciting proxies for the election of such person as a Director, and must be accompanied by a consent, signed by each such person, to serve as a Director of the Corporation if elected. Notwithstanding anything in the Bylaws to the contrary, no business shall be conducted at an annual meeting except in accordance with the procedures set forth in this Section.

3.    Special Meetings. Special meetings of the shareholders shall be called by the Corporate Secretary or an Assistant Corporate Secretary at any time on order of the Board of Directors, the Chairman of the Board, the Vice Chairman of the Board, the Chairman of the Executive Committee, the Chief Executive Officer, or the President. Special meetings of the shareholders shall also be called by the Corporate Secretary or an Assistant Corporate Secretary upon the written request of holders of shares entitled to cast not less than ten percent of the votes at the meeting. Such request shall state the purposes of the meeting, and shall be delivered to the Chairman of the Board, the Vice Chairman of the Board, the Chairman of the Executive Committee, the Chief Executive Officer, the President or the Corporate Secretary.

A special meeting so requested shall be held on the date requested, but not less than thirty-five nor more than sixty days after the date of the original request. Written notice of each special meeting of shareholders, stating the place, day, and hour of such meeting and the business proposed to be transacted thereat, shall be given in the manner stipulated in Article I, Section 2, Paragraph 3 of these Bylaws within twenty days after receipt of the written request.

4.    Voting at Meetings. At any meeting of the shareholders, each holder of record of stock shall be entitled to vote in person or by proxy. The authority of proxies must be evidenced by a written document signed by the shareholder and must be delivered to the Corporate Secretary of the Corporation prior to the commencement of the meeting.

Any such committee, including the Executive Committee, shall have the authority to act in the manner and to the extent provided in the resolution of the Board of Directors designating such committee and may have all the authority of the Board of Directors, except with respect to the matters set forth in California Corporations Code Section 311.

6.    Quorum. A quorum for the transaction of business at any meeting of the Board of Directors or any committee thereof shall consist of one-third of the authorized number of directors or committee members, or two, whichever is larger.

7.    Action by Consent.

Such written consent or consents shall be filed with the minutes of the proceedings of the Board of Directors.

8.    Meetings by Conference Telephone. Any meeting, regular or special, of the Board of Directors or of any committee of the Board of Directors, may be held by conference telephone or similar communication equipment, provided that all Directors participating in the meeting can hear one another.

9.    Majority Voting. In any uncontested election, nominees receiving the affirmative vote of a majority of the shares represented and voting at a duly held meeting at which a quorum is present (which shares voting affirmatively also constitute at least a majority of the required quorum) shall be elected. In any election that is not an uncontested election, the nominees receiving the highest number of affirmative votes of the shares entitled to be voted for them, up to the number of directors to be elected by those shares, shall be elected; votes against a director and votes withheld shall have no legal effect.

For purposes of these Bylaws, “uncontested election” means an election of directors of the Corporation in which, at the expiration of the times fixed under Article I, Section 2 of these Bylaws requiring advance notification of director nominees, or for special meetings, at the time notice is given of the meeting at which the election is to occur, the number of nominees for election does not exceed the number of directors to be elected by the shareholders at that election.

If an incumbent director fails, in an uncontested election, to receive the vote required to be elected in accordance with this Article II, Section 9, then, unless the incumbent director has earlier resigned, the term of such incumbent director shall end on the date that is the earlier of (a) ninety (90) days after the date on which the voting results are determined pursuant to Section 707 of the California Corporations Code, or (b) the date on which the Board of Directors selects a person to fill the office held by that director in accordance with the procedures set forth in these Bylaws and Section 305 of the California Corporations Code.

10.    Certain Powers Reserved to the Shareholders. So long as PG&E Corporation shall hold the majority of the outstanding shares of the Corporation, PG&E Corporation may require the written consent of the PG&E Corporation Chairman of the Board or the PG&E Corporation Chief Executive Officer to enter into and execute any

transaction or type of transaction identified by the Board of Directors of PG&E Corporation as a “Designated Transaction.” For purposes of this Section 10, a Designated Transaction shall be any transaction or type of transaction identified in a duly adopted resolution of the Board of Directors of PG&E Corporation as requiring the written consent of the PG&E Corporation Chairman of the Board or the PG&E Corporation Chief Executive Officer pursuant to this Section 10. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this Section 10 shall limit the power of the Corporation to enter into or execute any transaction or type of transaction prior to the receipt by the Corporate Secretary of the Corporation of the resolution designating such transaction or type of transaction as a Designated Transaction pursuant to this Section 10.
